Yesterday, on the way back from Omegatoys, I was late and in trouble with Mrs TheBoy for being late, so I was 'pressing on a bit' in the tractor. Came off a roundabout, foot hard to floor, revs went up, speed went down. Just like a slipping clutch.
So I thought I'd better stop, so started to brake, and drive came back for a while, when started to lose again. Every time I braked firmly, I got drive back.
As I was near home - about 1/2m, I limped it home in 1st with no further dramas. Absolutely stank of ATF about half and hour later...
Due to symptoms, esp seeming to get drive when braking (pushing ATF to TC), I suspected low atf level.
So tonight, jacked up one side, through in 1.5l via a hose and funnel with engine running. Removed hose, and about 1l came out, possibly more (some made it on to drive). So I'm guessing it wasn't that?
So, I guess I've knackered the box as well.
